[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, have you considered Duck, NC? It is 4.5 hr drive if you time it right, which if you owned a place (so aren’t subject to the Sat-Sat rental hours), you could do. I think the beaches are so much nicer and quieter there than DE. Also, town of Duck is small but cute. Before the haters come in, it is definitely a quieter scene than DE, no boardwalk, mini golf, less restaurants. But the beaches are quiet and nice, the area is great for biking, the sound is fun for paddle boarding, kayaking, etc., and there are a handful decent to good restaurants, plenty of options for ice cream, coffee, etc. [/quote]

If you’re going to drive that far you might as well just get a place in the Hamptons. Hamptons beaches are nicer than the Outer Banks and you can do day trips to NYC on the LIRR.[/quote]

NYC-DC can easily be 4 hours alone in the summer on I-95. NYC-Hamptons can be another 3-4 hours with traffic via the LIE. And Hamptons homes are easily 2-4x the cost of Duck.

What a dumb idea. [/quote]

I used to take train to DC every Friday. I ran into a richer older couple once or twice. They lived in DC near Union Station. She take Amtrak to BWI, then there is a plane to Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP) where she kept her car all summer then drive the last 40 miles to her house in Southampton.

[b]There is also a Bulltet train to the Hamptons.[/b] The Long Island Railroad runs a Bullet train as runs straight to hamptons and has reserved seating in summers. If loaded that Acela to Penn Station NYC and switch to LIRR Bullet train. A lot of Hamptons NYers, buy houses walking distance a LIRR Train Station so they leave their car out there or summer.

I am not loaded by my friends and I rented one summer in Hampton Bays two blocks from Train station and was super easy. A few years later we rented out in South Hampton walking distance a Hamton Jittney spot. Half the house had no cars and no need once there as we has more than enought cars. I had a old Jeep converible I left out there all summer    [/quote]

Wait what?

There are no bullet trains on the LIRR - seriously no idea what you are even trying to refer to?[/quote]
They run express trains to the Hamptons only in summer, for the weekends.[/quote]
